LUPITA Lupita Infante is the granddaughter of the legendary Pedro Infante, one of the greatest stars and Mexico’s most beloved artist to come from the Golden Age of Mexican cinema and music.
Growing up in the suburbs of Downey, a city in Los Angeles County with a rich cultural and musical history, Lupita began her creative development by learning to sing and accompany herself on guitar, which earned her early recognition at a young age.
Her excitement for the stage, along with inspiration drawn from her grandfather and father, led her to pursue voice and the study of music. Lupita graduated from the University of California,Los Angeles (UCLA) in June 2017, with a B.A. in ethnomusicology, where she also participated in the world’s first university-level mariachi ensemble, Mariachi de Uclatlán founded in 1961.

She has also opened concerts for Shaila Durcal and Beatriz Adriana and performed at the Dorothy Chandler Pavilion in support of arts and musical education programs. Most recently, she placed ranchera music and Mexican pride center stage with her performance at the sold-out 29th edition of Mariachi USA, the most prestigious ranchera music festival in the United States this past June at the iconic Hollywood Bowl in the city of Los Angeles. Featured as Billboard's Latin Artist On The Rise, Lupita’s music is an artistic expression of her musical upbringing, paying tribute to her grandfather and her father Pedro Infante, Jr, with songs like “Cien Años” and “Padre Mío Amigo Mío,” accompanied by Mexico’s traditional mariachi sounds.Her journey has also taken her to La Voz, Mexico's edition of the popular competition reality series The Voice, where she exchanged creative insights with her celebrity coach Carlos Vives of Colombia.
Currently, Lupita is recording and preparing new music which will soon be available and will be performing at the 2018 Lift Off Festival in Chicago this coming August. Committed to continuing her family legacy, Lupita Infante brings together her passion for education and music with her incredible talent as a singer, musician and performer, honoring her musical roots for a new generation of fans and music lovers.
